DAVID Rudisha's defense of his world 800 meters title in Moscow next month is in doubt because of a knee injury, the Kenyan's coach said on Wednesday.
"He is progressing on well, but I doubt if he will heal early enough to resume training for the world championships," Rudisha's coach Colm O'Connell said from Iten, some 400 kilometers from the Kenyan capital Nairobi. Rudisha, who set a world record of 1:40.91 winning the Olympic title last year in London, picked up the knee injury running in Central Park in New York City. The 24-year-old is being treated in Germany and is expected to miss the east African nation's trials tomorrow.
